Just The Facts Please


All around the world people are waking up to a growing awareness that the 99% are being manipulated, bullied, pressured, bamboozled, confused, and stressed by the 1% who own the airwaves and the presses but not the internet. 

Collectively we are realising that our rulers work hard at creating rules that work against us and profit them in stripping the planet while provoking us into fighting each other. Together we are realising that we only count as consumers and work slaves. We earn elite praise just before despatching to fight their wars. We're worth least when we return from those same conflicts broken and battered emotionally and physically. The elites keep their distance. They keep their profits. They keep silent.

All the evidence in the world can't change a mind that is fixed and dependant on another mind to frame its reality. But if you're ready for a fresh look. If you're tired of the spoon fed lies and question the integrity of the 9/11 commission report

Maybe it's time to move onto solids. Use a search engine to find information that makes you feel uncomfortable. Using your own initiative is far superior than my links.

Take your time. Examine the evidence. Look inside. Trust yourself. Nobody else matters.

Chris Hedges - Rise Of The Corporate Class





We've seen the rise of the corporate state and inverted totalitarianism* opens Chris Hedges. 

They speak in the iconography of patriotism and the constitution

Our coup d'etat in slow motion**

It's not built around a demagogue or charismatic leader

It finds expression in the anonymity of the corporate state.

The Obama administration is the poster child for the craven hypocrisy of the liberal class.

"I'm not a Marxist but any political theorist who hasn't read Marx is illiterate"

We are creating an oligarchic state and you can't have a functioning democracy in an oligarchic state. It's something Lucidities and Plutarch understood  and wrote about.

We have to understand who the enemy is and the enemy is Wall Street (said before the rise of Occupy Wall Street)


Two of the quotes Chris uses are attributed to  *Sheldon Woldin and **John Ralston Saul.
